Oku no Hosomichi (The Narrow Road to the Deep North)奥の細道
"The months and days are the travelers of a hundred generations, and the years that come and go are travelers too" — the travel record of Bashō, who left Edo at forty-six and walked Ōshū and Hokuriku for five months. In the summer grass he sees the dreams of warriors, in the rock he hears the voice of the cicadas soaking in, and under one roof he likens the sleeping women of pleasure to bush clover and the moon. Wherever the prose comes to rest, a haiku is set down. Beside the pilgrim records of Faxian, Xuanzang, and Hyecho, this is one more road in this library.
Forty-six sections, eighty-eight passages. The lines were divided so that each haiku stands in its own place after the prose. The eighty collation notes were moved into interlinear notes.
